Combination Circuit Diagram (resistor network simplification)

In summary, the goal of the conversation was to redraw a circuit diagram until it became series. The individual provided images to show their progress, but the last few were blurry. They were asked about their notation for parallel equivalent resistances and it was noted that they were on the right track. The notation used appeared to be R with numbers separated by dots.

How do I accomplish this? The goal is to redraw the diagram of the ciruit shown below, until it becomes series in the end.

Given:
PwFIRRc.jpg

Here’s what I did:
Diagram 1

*I apologize for flipped images. iPhone camera is tricky.

Is this correct? If not, why?

Yes.

This problem belongs to our homework help section. Since this is your first post, I believe some mentor will move this thread for you to the HH forum. Please post such questions in the HH forum next time onwards.

Welcome to PF!:smile:

As far as "are you correct?"... Well the last few images are blurry. It looks like you started on the right track, though.
What notation are you using to denote parallel equivalent resistances?
All I can really make out is R with a bunch of numbers separated by dots.
 

1. What is a combination circuit diagram?

A combination circuit diagram is a simplified representation of a complex network of resistors connected in a circuit. It shows how resistors are connected and how they affect the flow of electrical current.

2. How is a combination circuit diagram different from a regular circuit diagram?

A combination circuit diagram includes multiple resistors connected in a network, whereas a regular circuit diagram typically only shows one or two resistors in a single circuit. It also simplifies the circuit by combining resistors that are connected in series or parallel.

3. Why is simplification important in combination circuit diagrams?

Simplification of a combination circuit diagram makes it easier to analyze and understand the behavior of the circuit. It also helps in calculating the equivalent resistance and current in the circuit, which is necessary for designing and troubleshooting.

4. What are the different methods of simplifying a combination circuit diagram?

The two main methods of simplification are series-parallel simplification and delta-wye transformation. In series-parallel simplification, resistors connected in series or parallel are simplified into equivalent resistors. In delta-wye transformation, a delta-shaped resistor network is transformed into a wye-shaped network, which is easier to analyze.

5. How can combination circuit diagrams be used in practical applications?

Combination circuit diagrams are widely used in electrical engineering to design and troubleshoot complex circuits. They are also used in electronic devices such as computers, smartphones, and household appliances, where multiple resistors are connected in a network to control the flow of electricity.
